Q. What is your gown cleaning process and are you taking extra precautions regarding covid-19?
A. We can assure you that our inventory is always sanitized when you receive it. We have increased our health and safety measures during this time by having each gown and bag professionally cleaned as soon as it arrives back at Kinsley James. The CDC has informed us that there is a low risk of the virus spreading from the products that are shipped over a period of days at ambient temperatures. Our priority is to keep our brides and staff members safe and healthy. We feel confident in the measures we are taking to ensure this.
Q. How much does it cost?
A. The KJ Kit is $300 and you will be charged 1/3rd of the retail price of the 3 gowns you choose to try on. If you say “YES” to a dress, the 1/3rd amount will be applied to your order. The $300 shipping and cleaning fee is non-refundable and cannot be applied to an order. If you do not say “yes”, after we receive your Kit back, we will refund you the 1/3rd amount.
Q. How LONG DO WE KEEP THE DRESSES FOR?
A. You have 3 days to try on the wedding dresses and then send them back with the provided prepaid shipping label.
Q. is there a late return fee?
A. Fees do apply for late returns at $50 per late day - to ensure the next bride gets her samples on time.
Q. Does the price of the “KJ kit” get applied towards my dress?
A. Yes!! When you say “YES” to your Kinsley James dress, your deposit will be applied to your order with the exception of a $300 cleaning and shipping fee.
Q. How long will it take for my “KJ kit” to arrive?
A. Our KJ Kits will go out within 1-2 weeks depending on availability of samples! Once your KJ Kit has been shipped, you will receive an email with tracking information so you know exactly when you can expect your kit!
Q. Can I keep the garment bag the dresses came in?
A. Each dress in your KJ Kit must be returned in it’s individual Kinsley James garment bag to keep gowns safe and not damaged. When you receive your own wedding dress, you will receive your own Kinsley James garment bag!
Q. How much is due when I’m ready to purchase?
A. You can either pay in full or it is a 50% deposit to order your dress and then 50% when your dress arrives in-store.
Q. How long will it take for my wedding dress to arrive once I say YES!
A. The typical production time is 5-7 months and then you will need about 8 weeks for alterations so we recommend ordering 9-10 months in advance. If you need sooner options, we can accommodate rushes and also have samples available for purchase. Please speak to a stylist if you need more information.
Q. Will MY wedding dress arrive at Kinsley James or can it be shipped to me?
A. Your dress will always arrive at a Kinsley James location to go through our thorough inspection process. At that point, you will be notified and can decide if you’d like to come in to try it on and pick it up or have it shipped to you for a fee.
Q. Are alterations included?
A. Every wedding dress requires some type of alteration to perfectly sculpt the dress to your body. After you purchase your gown we will provide you with a list of recommended seamstresses in the area. This way you are free to interview tailors and see who you feel most comfortable with or use a tailor of your own choosing. Each tailor on our list has been handpicked based on their experience and reputation. If you live out of the area we will be more than happy to assist you in finding the most qualified tailors near you.
